Personal Finance

By definition, most business owners have more than enough risk in their lives. That's why experts believe that when owners are fortunate enough to be able to take money off the table they should invest that money conservatively. Here we help owners figure out where to put their hard-won gains. We also offer guidance on such issues as preparing for succession, figuring out which expenses can be run through the business legitimately, and deciding whether you can still afford to offer your employees a 401(k) plan.
